Remove platform field

Close: #725 See discussion in #830 and dev-weekly-meeting discussion in http://ircbot.wl.linuxfoundation.org/meetings/opencontainers/2017/opencontainers.2017-06-14-21.03.log.txt We don't use this field in runc, and mostly only image-spec cares about this, we can assume tools know what specific platform this spec is built for.
